The product

 Sun to Go sells devices for using solar energy at home or away from home. These products include batteries, chargers, solar panels, power packs, generators.

 Solar panels absorb the sun’s light and heat (solar energy) and convert that energy into electrical power. That power can be used to charge electronic devices, such as mobile

phones, tablets, and so on.

 Power packs and generators store extra energy from the solar panels. This power can be used at times when the solar panel may not be practical, such as after dark or during a storm.

 Solar energy is a renewable, sustainable form of power.  The scientific term for the process of transforming solar energy into electricity is called

photovoltaics (PV).

 Sun to Go buys its products from GoalZero; you can view the range of products and read more about how they work here: http://www.goalzero.com/products
